Bespoke kitchen design and installation in Orpington. Trusted, professional, 30+ years' hands-on experience.
GS Renovation designs and builds kitchens across Orpington, from compact galley layouts in 1930s semis to open-plan kitchen-diners in the area's larger interwar and detached homes. With more than 30 years in BR6, we handle the cabinetry, worktops, appliances, plumbing, electrics, tiling and any structural steelwork as one complete project.

The most requested Orpington kitchen project removes the wall between the original rear kitchen and the dining room to create one bright, sociable kitchen-diner. That dividing wall is usually load-bearing, so we install a steel beam sized by a structural engineer and signed off by Bromley Council building control. The generous plots common in BR6 often allow a rear extension to make the new space even larger and flood it with light.
Once the structure is open, we plan the layout around how the family actually cooks and gathers. We fit quality units, run the plumbing and electrics, integrate the appliances and finish with worktops in quartz, granite or composite. Considered lighting, splashback tiling and flooring tie the room together, turning several cramped interwar rooms into a single space that works for both everyday meals and entertaining.
Not every Orpington kitchen needs a wall removed. In many interwar semis we work within the existing footprint, using clever fitted cabinetry to make far better use of chimney recesses, awkward corners and the space beneath original bay windows. Whether you want a handleless contemporary look or a classic Shaker design, we build to suit the age and proportions of your home.
We treat the kitchen as a complete package rather than just cabinets. Fresh wiring for sockets, hob and lighting is notifiable under building regulations, and we handle the certification alongside new plumbing for sinks, dishwashers and any island. Worktops are templated and fitted precisely, tiling and splashbacks are finished neatly, and the whole room is decorated so you receive a kitchen that is ready to use, not a job that needs finishing off.
Orpington families choose GS Renovation because one team delivers the whole kitchen, including any steel beam knock-through, the services, worktops and finish. We know how BR6 interwar homes are laid out and how to open them up compliantly under building control. With 30-plus years locally, you get transparent pricing, tidy working in an occupied home and a kitchen built to last.
George was brilliant. Lovely bloke, very reasonably priced and a perfectionist to boot. He completed our small kitchen renovation with care and great attention to detail. I've already recommended him to others.
Splendid job on our new kitchen refurb, including new flooring, moving the services, installing RSJ and preparing space for new back doors… George was always friendly, communicative and has an excellent attention to detail, ensuring everything is finished to a high standard.
Giorgio is an excellent and intelligent workman, and with very reasonable prices!… He paid a lot of attention to detail that is not common at all, and the final result was immaculate. Highly recommended!

Yes. A large share of Orpington's homes are 1930s and interwar properties, and we renovate them regularly. We plan each kitchen renovation around their particular characteristics, such as cavity walls, regular original layouts and the generous plots that suit extending, so the result suits the building and meets building control.
Yes, it is one of our most popular projects in Orpington. The wall between the kitchen and the rear or dining room is usually load-bearing, so it needs a steel beam sized by a structural engineer and signed off by Bromley Council building control. On a semi-detached house a party wall notice may also be required. We manage the structure and the new kitchen together.
